Which option correctly states the limitation of coordination in plants?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Plants do not have a nervous system so they coordinate mainly through chemicals and growth responses
The governing concept is plant coordination without an animal-like nervous system. Plants detect stimuli and respond through chemical messengers, electrical or chemical signalling, and differential growth; these responses are generally slower and less centralized than animal nervous responses. Option A correctly states this limitation. B falsely gives plants a brain and spinal cord, C incorrectly substitutes blood for plant transport tissues, and D denies well-known stimulus responses.
